Cossie came all the way back to auburn from pollack pines to deliver some limit straps and a sleeping bag. Top quality gear!!! Installed the straps tonight in the hotel

Anyone know what's the lowest reading each cell can safely be down to on a 3s. For instance is 3.5 too low? after running the truck dead 2 of the cells read 3.8 as the other read 3.5

I've always read that 3.2v per cell was lowest you'd want to go. So, I think you're fine. What about your 2s battery? How is that?

Ok thanks! Thats good news
Going to check the 2s shortly. I think the servo winch is draining too much power

Do you know what voltage cutoff setting your esc is set at? You could probably set it at 3.2v and get a little more run time. Surprisingly, when I checked what my BRXL was, it was at 3v. That is why I changed it to 3.2v.

I've had it at auto since I've owned it. Never had a problem until Saturday which was right after I through the servo winch on. I'm thinking it's just that. Going to pull out the plug and see

2s reads 3.7 as lowest cell

Your 2s is definitely safe.

Well. Wasn't a huge difference with winch out. Haven't charged my 2s to check duration. But I'm wondering if it's something deeper. Like bec. Or esc.

Ae2 castle 10amp. I've ran for months on this specific setup. And. Years on another rig with this setup. My next door neighbor has a 3s 5400. I'll run his and see if dies as quick. If so it's esc or bec. Not sure how that could have changed in a week but I guess we'll see

3.2v is good lipo cutoff, I've read that 3.0v is ok, but seems a little low to me, my Tekin FXR is set to auto 3s cut-off. ALWAYS balance charge your lipos! I don't like them to get more than 0.2v out of sync from lowest to highest cell voltage.

I always balance!!! I was told by job to basically never charge without balancing.

I'll find out today

I saw a couple uncut clear bodies the other day on ebay for around 50 bucks.

And it's cheaper than $50 shipped to my door!
